Another Six Sentence Sunday


First off - apologies for not participating last week - it was Thanksgiving in Canada.

This week's six sentences are from my first novel - A Kept Woman.  It recently received a 5 star and 3 Orgasmic review from Just Erotic Romance Review.

Arianne, is unemployed and has been searching for a jobfruitlessly searching through the want ads until she comes across...

Hi, I’m Derek. I’m looking for a woman. I don’t want a girlfriend or a lover. Just a mutually sexually satisfying companion. The work will be minimal and the pay will be excellent. If interested email me your name, an introduction - 100 words or less - and a photo to entice me to hire you.

Inhibitions lowered by "a little too much" wine, she answered the ad and ---let the fun begin!

Oh, and don't forget to feed my fish. Hope to see you next Sunday.

Five Stars and an Orgasmic Review

Just Erotic Romance Reviews - did a review on my first book - A Kept Woman.  I'm in shock - excited and pleased.

Derek Davenport, who has more money than he can spend in a few lifetimes, isn't having the best of luck when it comes to the opposite sex. During a drinking bender at his favorite bar Derek realizes the best thing to do is put an ad in the paper for an employee that will provide sex whenever he wants yet without a relationship. Arianne is experiencing tough breaks, out of a job, little money, and a boyfriend who decided to break up with her. Arianne happens to see Derek’s ad for employment, and with a lot of wine consumed, decides to put in her application. Arianne and Derek agree to the terms of employment and for weeks they are happy with the arrangement, but Arianne realizes she wants more, while Derek can’t seem to keep Arianne out of his thoughts.
A Kept Woman is a different type of rich man buys sex and falls in love with normal female. Derek comes across as such an insensitive jerk when we first meet him only to show that he is very caring and protective of those he loves. In my mind, Arianne is like a girlfriend and I wanted to scold her when I thought she did stupid things. Derek and Arianne’s sexual chemistry isn’t up front and center when they first meet but as the ‘employment’ continues we are firsthand witness to the steamy sexual acts that only get hotter with each scene.  When the sex delves into BDSM with bondage, spankings, and submission, you may need a toy or partner to relieve the ache. Derek and Arianne will take us with them to the islands and New York City as they discover the powerful bond that gets stronger each day. I enjoyed almost all of the secondary characters in the story however, there was one character I didn’t find had a place in the story and almost took Arianne in a different direction. A Kept Woman is an awesome read and I was sad to say goodbye to Arianne and Derek.

Black Dorn - Art

On a friend's blog - Pages of Romance - I saw she had created a Wordle out of some of the text of her story.  I loved it so much I made one of my next release - Black Dorn.
I love how it picked the heroine's name and made it the biggest word. The hero's name - Malack - is near the bottom.

I must defintiely pass on a thank you to Victoria Adams for showing me this.
And to Ambrielle - who started the whole thing by mentioning the program to Victoria.

Six Sentence Sunday

Six Sentence Sunday
Happy October. Here are my six sentences from my current erotic contemporary - Sexy Red Hood.

Andrew settled on the stool next to her and said, "So, to continue my Red Riding Hood theme. Obviously, you're Red Riding Hood. I'm the woodsman, which is funny because that's my name."
"This is me laughing." Red took her drink from the bartender and had a sip.
"Your grandmother's here, so all we have to do is find the wolf. And I think I know who it is?"

“Go save your Grandmother.”  After learning that her grandmother has booked a cruise with a supposed gigolo and is squandering her inheritance, Esmeralda (Red) Hood boards Emerald Forest cruise ship to protect both. 
 Once there, Red slips and falls into the arms of Wilhelm Olf, a dark-eyed, continental who makes her body tingle.  Stepping out of the elevator, she barges into Andrew Woodsman, a bumbling private school teacher on his first vacation cruise.
With her attention torn between the dissimilar but sexually-intriguing men and keeping watch over tequila drinking, rock wall climbing grandma, Red's cruise is filled with fun and erotic fantasies.
Grandmother's warning of Never trust a wolf in sheep's clothing leaves Red confused. Later, when she wakes up in a utility closet, hands and feet bound and emerald necklace missing, Red discovers the man she suspected is not only innocent but also the one she loves.
